What is Phonics? • Children begin to learn Phonics in Nursery and Reception • Once children begin learning sounds, they use this knowledge to read and spell words. Children can then see the purpose of learning sounds. For this reason, the first initial sounds that are taught are ‘s’, ‘a’, ‘t’, ‘p’, ‘i’, ‘n’. • These can immediately be blended for reading to make simple CVC words e. g. sat, pin. Children then develop segmenting skills to write.

Blending • Recognising the letter sounds in a written word, for example c-u-p and

Blending • Recognising the letter sounds in a written word, for example c-u-p and merging or ‘blending’ them in the order in which they are written to pronounce the word ‘cup’

Segmenting • ‘Chopping Up’ the word to spell it out • The opposite of blending • Identifying the individual sounds in a spoken word (e. g. h-i-m , s-t-or -k) and writing down letters for each sound to form the word him and stork

Purpose of Phase 1 • Explore and experiment with sounds and words • Distinguish between different sounds in the environment and phonemes • Learn to orally blend and segment sounds in words

By the end of Phase 1 • Children will have experienced a wealth of listening activities including songs, stories and rhymes. • They will be able to distinguish between speech sounds and many will be able to blend and segment words orally. • Some will also be able to recognise spoken words that rhyme and will be able to provide a string of rhyming words, but inability to do this does not prevent moving on to Phase Two as these speaking and listening activities continue.

Purpose of Phase 2 • Learn 19 phonemes and know the graphemes that represent

Purpose of Phase 2 • Learn 19 phonemes and know the graphemes that represent them. • Move on from orally blending and segmenting to blending and segmenting letters to read and spell (maybe with magnetic letters) VC and CVC words • Introduce two syllable words, simple captions and some tricky HFW.

Purpose of Phase 3 • Teach another 25 phonemes and graphemes to go with them. • Learn letter names • Continue to practise blending and segmenting using new phonemes and two syllable words

New National Curriculum Year 1 Reading Year 1 Writing Year 1 - Transcription Apply phonic knowledge and skills as the route to decode words Spell words containing each of the 40+ phonemes already taught Respond speedily with the correct sound to graphemes for all 40+ phonemes including alternative sounds for graphemes Spell common exception words Read accurately by blending sounds in unfamiliar words containing GPCs that have been taught Spell the days of the week Read common exception words, noting unusual correspondence between spelling and sound where these occur in word Name the letters of the alphabet in order Read words containing taught GPCs and –s, -es, -ing, -ed, -er and –est endings Use letter names to distinguish between alternative spellings of the same sound Read other words of more than one syllable that contain taught GPCs Use the spelling rule for adding –s or –es Read words with contractions (I’m, I’ll, we’ll) and understand that the apostrophe represents the omitted letter(s) Use the prefix –un Read aloud accurately books that are consistent with their developing phonic knowledge Using –ing, -ed, -er and –est where no change is needed in the spelling of root words Re-read these books to build up their fluency and confidence in word reading Apply simple spelling rules Write from memory simple sentences dictated by the teacher that include words using the GPCs and common exception words taught so far

What is the Phonics Screening Check? • Children in Year 1 throughout the country

What is the Phonics Screening Check? • Children in Year 1 throughout the country will all be taking part in the phonics screening check during the same week in June. • If children did not pass the test in Year 1, they will retake the test in Year 2.

What happens during the test? • The test contains 40 words. • Each child

What happens during the test? • The test contains 40 words. • Each child will sit one to one and read each word aloud. • The test will take approximately 10 minutes per child; although all children are different and will complete the check at their own pace. • The list of words the children read in a combination of 20 real words and 20 nonsense words.
